Students' (and society's) problem with evolution theory might also have to
do with the way science is taught to even the youngest as if we are
indoctrinating possible future professional scientists with the Truth.

Do this for long enough and you convince most they are not smart enough and
most never change their understanding of the phenomena.  Gee! That's the
outcome of Science "Education" now!  Go figure!

"As a result of modern research in physics, the ambition and hope,
still cherished by most authorities of the last century, that physical
science could offer a photographic picture and true image of reality
had to be abandoned."  --M. Jammer in Concepts of Force, 1957.

"If what we regard as real depends on our theory, how can we make
reality the basis of our philosophy? ...But we cannot distinguish
what is real about the universe without a theory...it makes no sense
to ask if it corresponds to reality, because we do not know what
reality is independent of a theory."--S. Hawking in Black Holes
and Baby Universes, 1993.
